"International contribution", diffused in the wake of Gulf War, is a peculiar idea in Japan. Western International Relations Theory (IRT) talks about "international coordination" and/or "international cooperation", but never deals with "international contribution". I'm going to focus on the idea of "international contribution", which enables me to discuss Japanese perception of international relations and encourages me to reconsider so-called IRT.How does the idea of "international contribution" rise up to the surface? The historical overview of this question is presented in the first section. Through the rapid economic growth, the prime ministers of Japan such as Eisaku Sato, Yasuhiro Nakasone and Noboru Takeshita came to feel the enhanced international status as one of big powers, which was unaccompanied by Japan's actual performance. This gap between the expectation from "international society" and the reality in "international society" provided the setting for the idea of "international contribution". The emergence of this idea was nothing more than contingent use initially. Notwithstanding this genesis, "international contribution" precisely captured something like the flavor of the time and got into circulation.Then, how was "international contribution" mentioned? The structural outline, which is visible in the use of "international contribution", is inductively extracted in the second section. The perception that Japan had taken "free ride" on "public goods" arousing international criticism keenly made Japanese realize the necessity of "international contribution". Furthermore, "international society" is hypostatized in the background of "international contribution", dredged through the comparison with "international coordination" and "international cooperation". These understanding denote that at least for most of the Japanese the realm of international relations is not "anarchy".Besides, how was "international contribution" as practice put into? Alongside of this question, transition of subject positions, especially pertaining to the Self Defense Force (SDF) and the Non-Governmental Organization (NGO), is reviewed in the third section. Although dispatching SDF which evokes the shade of military forces had long been regarded as taboo in the postwar period, the SDF brought about recognition as an actor of "international contribution" together with growing necessity of "international contribution". NGO, on the other hand, came to accumulate fund and human material due to escalating interest in "international contribution". Then the governmental awareness of NGO has gradually changed and the government has got to utilize NGOs.Various aspects of "international contribution" are sketched through the analysis of these chapters. Based on these aspects, I wonder if "international contribution" is a certain type of IRT. It functioned historically as a "lens" which gave us some "answers" at that time. If that's the case, we ought to consider what the "academic" theory is and what it should be.

We investigated whether riding a motorcycle in daily life has beneficial effects on the cognitive functions of healthy subjects. Twenty-two healthy right-handed men, who had a significant break from riding, participated in this study. They were randomly assigned to either the intervention or control group. The intervention group was asked to ride a motorcycle in their daily life for two months. The intervention group showed improvement of their visuospatial cognition compared with the control group. Results of this study indicate that riding a motorcycle in daily life could have beneficial effects in returning riders.

Using a questionnaire which asseses premenstrual syndrome and dysmenorrhea symptoms, we investigated 392 senior high school female students in June and July, 2002. Sixty-eight percent of these students were suffering from premenstrual syndrome, and eighty-three percent of these students were suffering from dysmenorrhea symptoms. Comparing symptoms of premenstrual syndrome with dysmenorrhea, there are a lot of somatic symptoms in both conditions, but premenstrual syndrome has more symptoms of swelling and breast pain than dysmenorrhea. Symptomatically, it is recognized that symptoms of premenstrual syndrome are different from symptoms of dysmenorrhea. In daily and school life, thirty-three percent of those students were disturbed by premenstrual syndrome. This study proposes that it is necessary to teach students not only about dysmenorrhea but also about premenstrual syndrome in school health education and mental health counseling classes.

The peculiar use of the chariots in the Iliad is usually explained as being due to Homer's ignorance of their use among the Mycenaeans who must have "fought like the Hittites" (D. Gray). Of course, there are some passages in the Iliad which suggest that the Mycenaeans attempted such chariot fighting (e. g. Nestor's advice to his charioteers, -A 297 ff.), and the Linear B tablets attest the existence of some hundreds of chariots in Knossos and Pylos. In spite of these facts, considering the geographical conditions of Greece, we cannot imagine that such tactics were so effective as to be widely used. So I think the assumption doubtful that Homer had forgotten Mycenaean chariot tactics, and having reexamined the text of the Iliad, I point out some evidence against the assumption. (1) Even among the chief heroes we find some who have no chariot for their own use, to say nothing of chariot troops (e. g. Odysseus, Aias of Salamis, Teukros and Aias of Lokris). As this difference among the heroes must be due to the geographical conditions, it certainly existed in the Mycenaean Age. Moreover, since Odysseus and Aias of Salamis are on equal terms with the other heroes, the possession of chariots must have been of little importance. (2) Among the Achaeans, fifteen persons have epithets relating to horses (or chariots), ten of them being of the former generation (e. g. Pelops, Atreus, Peleus and Nestor), and only five in the prime of life (e. g. Diomedes and Patroklos). This curious ratio shows that, though in earlier times horses (or chariots) had been highly esteemed, their value became lower towards the end of the Mycenaean Age. This change suggests that they were not effective in actual battles. (3) While we find many formulae which depict the scenes of jumping down, falling or making a person fall, from a chariot, there is no set formulae in the Iliad which depict an attack from a chariot. But a few passages show that Homer himself (or his immediate predecessors) aimed to depict attacks from chariots, combining spear-throwing formulae with a falling-from-a-chariot formula (Ε 275-97, Θ116-23). Therefore, strictly speaking, it is not Homer but the stock of the traditional formulae, that is responsible for the treating of the chariots as mere vehicles. We cannot assume that Homer or his immediate predecessors should have left out, if there had been any, fighting-from-chariots formulae, since they sometimes wanted to depict such scenes. Moreover, some parallel cases confirm the possibility that formulae which are inconsistent with each other do co-exist. So it does not seem possible that the fighting-from-chariots formulae arose from the many treatments in chariot fighting in the Mycenaean Epics. One is inclined to conclude that with regard to the use of chariots there was no great difference between the Mycenaean World and the Homeric.

1997年6月25日に発生した山口県北部地震(M6.1)の震央付近の阿武川河床で確認された断層露頭の性状を記載するとともに, 地震動による家屋被害のデータを再検討し, 震源断層と断層露頭や被害域との関係を議論した.断層露頭は地質境界として指摘されていた迫田-生雲断層の北東端付近に位置し, NE-SW方向で幅5m以上のカタクレーサイト化したゾーンが発達している.このゾーン内部には最大幅50cmの断層ガウジ帯が"杉"型に雁行配列して発達し, 右横ずれの運動センスを示唆する.この運動センスは山口県北部地震の発震機構と一致した.さらに, この地震の余震は迫田-生雲断層北東部に集中する.家屋被害率を被害家屋総数/世帯数と定義し, 山口県阿武郡阿東町とむつみ村の地区(字)ごとに被害率を計算した.被害額の最も高かった生雲西分地区は震央の南西約5kmに位置し, 迫田-生雲断層上にあった.また, 被害域は生雲西分を中心とし, 迫田-生雲断層を軸とする半径10kmの円内に収まっている.これらのことから, 山口県北部地震は迫田-生雲断層北東部の活動で発生したことが裏付けられた.

この論文は国立情報学研究所の学術雑誌公開支援事業により電子化されました。The 15th Meeting of the International Institute of Sociology was held at Istanbul in 1952,where I had the privilege of assuming chairmanship of the section on Rural Sociology. There I also made my own report on the Japanese village community. ("Actes du XV^e Congres International du Sociologie, 1952,vol. 1,p. 181 ff.), and discussed briefly, from my sociological viewpoint, eleven aspects of the Japanese village community. The aim of the present paper is to make a more detailed study of the first of the eleven aspects, namely the closedness or openness of a community. For our research on this particular theme I am deeply indebted both to the Japanese government which has subsidized it for almost a dozen years, and to the Rockefeller Foundation for a five year grant which has enabled me to continue it since 1957 and will enable me to complete this survey on a national scale. The country is divided roughly into several districts according to climate, geographical features, and cultural patterns. According to modes of subsistence the Japanese villages may be divided under the three categories of the agricultural, the fishing, and the forestry (mountain) village. Our sociological research was made by selecting a number of villages from each subsistence category in each district. The Japanese village is now finding itself in a transitional period from an older type of village to a new one. To understand the Japanese village in transition, it is necessary to ascertain to what extent the main characteristics of the old and new types are increasing or decreasing with the lapse of time. In this article I have tried to specify 18 major factors which either determine or represent the opened or closed nature of a village, i. e., the degree of its contact with the outside world, whereby one may know to which type the village in question belongs. Our analysis of these factors has been based on concrete objective materials. With regard to each factor full account has been taken of the changes the agricultural, mountain, and fishing villages in each of the districts have undergone in the course of time. And in respect to the mobility of people, differences in sex and age have been duly taken into consideration. Let us begin with the factors relevant to the closed village community : (1) The peculiar way of earning a livelihood in a village is closely related with the degree to which it may be considered closed. In an agricultural village, the extreme difficulty of reclamation makes its people cling to their present strips of land and the small-scale intensive labor of cultivation makes it difficult for them to leave their farms. In a mountain village the inhabitants have hardly any leisure to go out of the village, being always busy with the work of forestry, trimming, lumbering, carrying down lumber, making charcoal, etc. In a fishing village, as its fishing area is limited to the sea immediately off its shore, its inhabitants seldom have a chance to go out of their village. Thus it may be seen that in these cases agriculture, forestry, and fishing all have the effect of closing a village community to the outside world. (2) We must consider the fact that there are certain properties and facilities commonly and equally shared by the villagers. The kinds of such common goods, the economic contents of these, and their importance for the economic life of each villager have been specified. Leaving one's village means, therefore, losing one's share in the benefits drawn from the common goods of the community. This situation also deters villagers from going away from the village. (3) Strangers are not easily permitted to make use of the common properties and establishments of the village or to join the village shrine festivals. They are required to fulfill certain qualifications such as a specified number of years of residence before they are admitted as villagers with full rights, and they must go through certain formalities before they are admitte

キウイフルーツ生産量変動を図1に示した。キウイフルーツは、20年の間に生産者・消費者双方にとって重要な果実への仲間入りを果たした。この20年間は、生産・消費が急激に増大した時期、消費不況による生産の調整期、そして近年の新たな発展に向けての萌芽期とに分けられる。これらを詳細に観察すると次のような解釈になる。これまで経験したことのないイメージの果物のもの珍しさから需要、供給共に急激な成長を遂げたものの、追熟メカニズムの未解明が原因で適切な品質管理ができず、結果酸っぱくて硬いまま店頭に並べられたキウイフルーツは次第に消費者の支持を失い、生産規模縮小を余儀なくされた。その後品質管理の徹底と新品種導入によるイメージチェンジで、新たな取り組みが始まり、消費者に新規果物としての支持復活の兆しが見え始め、現在に至ったと解釈できる三つのステージである。
